Magnetic Island Wildlife

Koala's are so cute. But why do they grab your boob when you hold him? According to the ranger, 'Because he can get away with it…'

These animals are from the Koala Sanctuary in Bungalow Bay Village on Magnetic Island.

Big crocodile. No intentions to cuddle him but I did hold a smaller one!

Believe me or not - I held a Python! Scary creature but soft and smooth.. and not so difficult once you get the 'feeling' of it. 

So why not try to handle the bigger one? Of course by now I felt like a real snake woman.

On the last morning I went horseback riding in the bush, on the beach in Horse Shoe Bay and in the sea. I didn't bring my camera so Guerin has been so kind as to let me post one of her. My back flip wasn't worth posting anyways. It splashed a great deal and I got wet, that's all I know :-)
